Hello All: Are there any physical limitations to the number of connections (TCP/UDP) that are determined by the physical interface itself? We have a PF load-balancing solution in place in front of a large number of mail servers and we're considering using the same boxes to front our Name Server/Name Resolvers. I'm concerned that the single uplink port on the PF box will be overloaded with the number of connections. Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Mike
